Does Trump have ADHD?

Note: This post is satire and not supposed to diagnose anyone.

I recently got diagnosed and I find some of his behaviors kind of relatable. So I decided to watch some of his speeches. Now I learned over the years to act and talk in a more structured way, but if I had thousands of people worshiping me I would also remove that filter. Listening to him I remembered more and more similarities:

All in all a very relatable guy. Now, should you vote for someone I can relate to? Probably not. The only job I qualify for is "mad scientist", which I believe Trump might also qualify for. Now, you might say: "But Mare, he is way to stupid for that." And okay, yea, point taken. I don't want this guy as a colleague anyway.

Some of you may have been wondering what the point of this post is. And to you I say; I don't know, I just want to see what happens if we give this guy Amphetamines. Will he become more effective? Will his supporters realize how dumb he is if he gets his points out more coherently? Will he just immediately die of a heart-attack? And is there a way for me to get more Trumps for a bigger sample size and a control group?

The last question might have an answer: I could run for office as the control group. I don't even need a lot of policies. Just something like: Remove ethics-committees, they are holding back honest Americans trying to further human knowledge.

TL;DR: Plz, plz, plz, plz, give this guy meds. I wanna see what happens. And don't vote for him, I need to run some tests and the Secret Service is really annoying to deal with.

Trump has Narcissistic Personality Disorder first and foremost, so all the examples you listed above need to be viewed through that lens before making another diagnosis

He acts like that because he's already on amphetamines. If you give him more then he'd overdose.

Give him more please.

Dude has way more than ADHD: Try frontotemporal dementia, at least one personality disorder, and of course a very serious drug habit.

give this guy meds. I wanna see what happens

You really are qualified to be a mad scientist 🤔

Apparently President Loser's entire administration was self-medicating the whole time, so they're way ahead of you there.

He is definitely already on stimulants. Maybe legal dextroamphetamine, or maybe cocaine.
